This is the letter, posted on Facebook, from a woman who knew Kavanaugh, Judge and Blasey Ford and claims that the attack did happen, that "many of us heard about it in school," and that it was talked about for days afterward. The FBI should interview her and others.

In Paul Ryan’s 3 years as Speaker, the annual deficit has skyrocketed from $430 billion to nearly $1 trillion as he heads for the exit door having passed the largest tax cut in history for billionaires. Sleazy attack ads are one last, obscene goodbye.

It's growing increasingly clear that if Christine Blasey Ford doesn't testify, Kavanaugh is going to be confirmed with Republicans falling in line -- barring any new developments over the next week

So correct Senator. And the GOP should pay with the loss of all thinking women if they jam another predator on to the High Court. Kavanaugh like Thomas is lying all way. The FBI must investigate. Stop this shameless GOP pursuit of power. November 6th thinking women must speak!

By reopening the investigation of Vince Foster's suicide Kavanuagh "tormented the Foster family in the most vicious, cruel, abuse of power I think I've ever seen in 30 years," says @PaulBegala: "If he would do something that horrible, I don't know what he was like in high school"
Before anyone says what a nice guy Brett Kavanaugh is…. You’ve heard of the Seth Rich conspiracy. Let me introduce you to Kavanaugh’s Vince Foster conspiracy, in which the GOP claimed the Clintons had a friend murdered in the White House. It wasn’t true. But that didn’t stop em. https://t.co/3IzhRWcicX— John Aravosis 🇺🇸 (@aravosis) September 19, 2018

For sheer idiocy, it’s hard to beat Trump’s crackdown on trade with China
We are embarked on trade wars with all of our major trade partners under the leadership of a commander in chief who literally does not know what he is doing. I am reminded of the words of Gen.
